Welcome to the Lake Erie Lacrosse Showcase and Festival
About the Tournament
The Lake Erie Lacrosse Showcase and Festival was started in June 2006 as an ideal way to begin your summer lacrosse season. To ensure player development, team building, sportsmanship and recruiting every team will play in a 5-game round robin tournament. To every family's liking, the Lake Erie Lacrosse Showcase and Festival has up to 16 fields all at one convenient location surrounded by shaded picnic areas, a breezy lake shoreline and even an on-site pool with an 1100 person capacity. The Lake Erie Lacrosse Showcase and Festival is one lacrosse event your team does not want to miss out on!
In 2011 close to 60 teams, 25 college coaches and 6,000 daily people attended the Lake Erie Lacrosse Showcase and Festival.
